In the CBS poll of undecided debate-watchers, 53% say Obama won, only 22% say McCain won, and 24% say it was a tie.
The CNN poll was just read on the air, surveying all debate-watchers
in general. It shows 58% saying Obama won, to 31% saying McCain won.
Barack Obama's personal ratings are 66% favorable to 33% unfavorable,
way ahead of McCain's score of 49%-49%.
Late Update: Some more numbers from the CNN poll were just
read on TV. Obama was seen as stating his ideas more clearly by
66%-25%, was seen as the stronger leader by 56%-39%, and was more
likable by 70%-22%. McCain did win in one category: He's the candidate
who launched more attacks on his opponent, by a whopping 80%-7%.
Late Late Update: Independents, who made up 30% of CNN's sample, gave it to Obama 57%-31%, essentially the same as the overall margin for Obama.
Best Wrap-Up of the Night (Gail Collins):
him again after school starts. Then you discover that back in real
life, he’s founder of the Model Boat Society and the president of the
Safety Club. And McCain is like the head counselor who led all the
hikes and who you wished was your older brother. Until you realized
that he spent the cold weather hanging out at a biker bar and watching
reruns of “Dog the Bounty Hunter.”
